If you’re interested in research or teaching assistantships, internships, or even volunteer work, you should check out the Human Development and Psychology Want Ads, a website where faculty can post these opportunities. This is a particularly good time to look because most faculty members are looking for their spring semester assistants right now. Keep in mind that not all professors will post openings on the website, so if you don’t see someone listed, you may want to visit the faculty links on the Human Development and Psychology websites, see if that person indicates whether or not he or she usually works with RAs or TAs, and then e-mail the individual to express your interest.

Don’t forget, though, that these are just internal positions, and that the Phoenix Recruitment Online (PRO) System through Career Services is where your job search should start. We also have very few internal internship positions. Your internship search might also involve PRO and the list of some of our past internships, but it should begin by making sure you meet pre-requisites and by talking with a faculty member and reviewing the internship policy.

Camp Lloyd is a day camp for grieving children who are between 7 and 14 years of age. Camp will be held at the Mauthe Center during the 3rd week in June 2014. We are now taking applications for student interns who would like to work with the campers. Application submission is open until November 7 2013. All majors are encouraged to apply. Although you will need to take Dying, Death and Loss prior to the beginning of camp, you do not need to have this course in order to apply. Please consult the Camp Lloyd website (www.uwgb.edu/camplloyd) or contact Dr. Cupit (465-2703) for further details.
